Abstract

A pneumatic tyre provided in at least one of sidewall portions (3) with a wheelrim protector (9) which overhangs a flange (JF) of a wheelrim and protrudes axially outwardly from the axially outer end of the flange, the wheelrim protector (9) being provided with at least one circumferential slit (11) around the axis of the tyre. In case of a slit (11) extending continuously in the tyre circumferential direction, the slit (11) can be formed in a wedge-shaped cross sectional shape. In the case of discontinuous slits (12), the slits may be arranged around the tyre axis and inclined with respect to the adjacent carcass cords at 45 to 80 degrees.
